Fleet Fuel Tracking & Log
Know Where Every Litre Goes

Log diesel costs per machine, track price trends over time, monitor consumption per asset and export fuel reports — built for UK plant hire, construction, haulage and agricultural operations.

Fuel Is Your Biggest Variable Cost — Are You Tracking It?

For plant hire, construction and agricultural businesses, fuel often represents 20–40% of total operating costs. Yet most operators have no clear picture of which machines are guzzling the most diesel, how much fuel prices have moved over the past year, or whether their fuel spend is on track with estimates.

No Visibility on Fuel Spend Per Asset

Without per-machine fuel logging, you can't identify which assets have abnormal consumption — a sign of engine issues, operator behaviour or theft.

Missed Fuel Price Fluctuations

Diesel prices in the UK can vary 10–15% over a quarter. If your operating cost model uses a fixed fuel price from months ago, your margins are wrong.

No Audit Trail for Fuel Costs

Clients, accountants and HMRC may request fuel cost records for recharging, tax purposes or project cost reporting — paper fuel cards aren't enough.

How Fuel Tracking Works in FleetBolt

1

Log Fuel Per Machine or Generic

Drivers or managers log each fuel-up: date, equipment, fuel type, litres, cost per litre, supplier and clock reading. Assign to a specific machine or log as generic/other equipment.

2

Track Prices & Trends Over Time

Record diesel, red diesel, petrol, AdBlue or LPG prices when you fill up. FleetBolt charts price history over the past 12 months so you can spot trends and update your cost models.

3

View Costs, Litres & Reports

See total fuel spend, total litres and cost per fuel type across your entire fleet — filtered by machine, fuel type, or date range. Export to CSV for finance reporting.

All Fuel Types Supported

Log diesel, red diesel, petrol, AdBlue and LPG. Each fuel type tracked separately with its own price history chart and consumption data.

Clock Reading per Fill-Up

Record the machine's hour meter or vehicle odometer at each fuel-up. Automatically updates the asset's current clock reading — no double-entry.

12-Month Price Trend Charts

Visual fuel price history charts for each fuel type over the past year. Spot price peaks, plan purchases and keep operating cost models accurate.

Total Fuel Cost Dashboard

See fleet-wide fuel spend at a glance — total litres, total cost, breakdowns by fuel type, and filters by machine or date range.

Operator Logging from Mobile

Seat users (drivers, operators) can log fuel fills from their phone in seconds. Owners and managers see costs; seat members see quantity only.

One-Click Sync to Operating Costs

Log a new diesel price here and it's ready to pull straight into the operating costs calculator with a single click — no re-typing figures or hunting for your last fill-up receipt.

Fuel Tracking Questions Answered

Can I track red diesel separately from white diesel?

Yes — FleetBolt tracks diesel, red diesel, petrol, AdBlue and LPG as separate fuel types, each with their own price history, consumption totals and trend charts.

Can drivers log fuel fills from their phone?

Yes — seat users (drivers, operators) can log fuel fills from a mobile device. They see quantity data but not cost data — costs are only visible to account owners and admins.

Does it track fuel for non-machinery equipment?

Yes — you can log fuel against a specific machine or as 'generic' for equipment not in your fleet list (generators, pressure washers, temporary plant etc.).

How does it connect to the operating costs calculator?

The operating costs calculator shows your latest logged diesel price next to the Fuel Cost field, with a 'Use latest price' button that pulls it straight in — so your cost-per-hour figures stay current without retyping anything.

Can I export fuel records for my accountant?

Yes — fuel logs can be exported to CSV for accountants, project managers or clients requiring fuel cost reports. Filter by machine, fuel type or date range before exporting.
